Being that my motor is sitting about two feet over my car in a hoist , I'm out.

 

Bummer... should have bought a Ford! Lol

 

As for me, I'm trying to pull some funding together. I will be a last minute register if i decide I can go.

As incentive to register, we'll be having free pizza and beer in the paddock with the AI guys Friday night. I hear you can race faster when hung over.

I know a few people that are good at that! I for one am not! Lol. And there might be one AI guy who I don't care for after I accidentally made contact with him in the rain while i was passing him. I got over it but he dislikes racing with my few thousand dollar car compaired to his 60k car. I don't know... must be a big check book thing!

It's shaping up to be another great CMC weekend at Mid-Ohio next week, June 29-July 1. So far, we've got the top 3 regional racers, (Anders, Derek and Kent) plus 5 other guys who are only a step behind, including new-to-CMC-but-old-racer John Cece representing in his LS1 Firebird.

 

We'll be having free pizza and beer Friday night in the CMC paddock with some of the AI guys and maybe even some FFR guys too.

 

If you haven't signed up yet, you are going to miss out on some of the best racing of the year! Only a couple more are needed to hit double-digits for the 3rd time this year.

 

Go get registered and join the fun!:

Fun weekend. Good turn out. I managed to solve 1 problem but gained 2 more. BTW... KO made a good stand in Todd!

 

Did anyone get any video? I saw Anders had a camera pointed at his miata tires on saturday. That would have made a cool video!

Rob,

I do have video of my not so succesful pass in the grass. I'll try to post it here.

Sorry for the poor decison on my part. I've watched it a number of times and I start yelling go right but it doesn't happen. Hopefully your 2 new problems aren't too difficult or costly to fix.

Unfortunately no. I did have a camera but no batteries. I think i have my one problem figured out but i have to figure out why my car goes into like a limp mode 3/4 of the way through the race.

I've got some great vid....especially Sunday's start. I just have to replace the editing program I lost with the lap-top crash and I'll get some posted. Congrats to Spencer for putting it on the poll Sunday. Nice job, newb! Not sure if you all noticed, but Sunday's Q times were within .02 for the top 4 cars. Spectacular! I'll try to get a real race report written from the hammock tomorrow morning. Bottom line....it was another great weekend chasing around the Yellow Bastard(s), and duking it out with everyone else. Can't wait till we can do it all again!

Sadly I had no video running in my car. I'm hoping either Spencer or John had a camera going in there car. Had a blast running in my first CMC race since last July though!

Wow what a blast! Sorry I didn't get a chance to say hi to everyone or meet the faces I haven't met I was busy chasing electrical issues all weekend. Good racing for sure and looking forward to the next one. Had to give Anders a few extra inches of room to clear the go pro ha! That should be some great vid! And no Joe, I wasn't running a camera. I haven't moved into the 21st century yet and didn't have a fresh "tape" for my camera and didn't have time to get one in town.

 

Good stuff!

I didn't get any video either (forgot the camera).

I'm ready for a do-over at next months event haha! Ok in practice/qualifying but that afternoon heat in the race was just too much for my cooling and fuel system. Nothing another round of upgrades/modifications won't fix

 

Hopefully see everyone again in august.
